The invention discloses a preparation method and application of a low-cost high-purity
graphite material. The preparation method comprises the following steps: pretreating waste
graphite powder to obtain
graphite powder of which D50 is less than or equal to 10 microns; the preparation method comprises the following steps: preparing active
powder A from graphite powder, carbon / carbon powder and
asphalt; then preparing active powder B from green
coke and
asphalt; mixing the active powder A, the active powder B and high-temperature
asphalt to prepare pressed powder; a
green body block is obtained through a pre-mold pressing-gradient isostatic pressing forming process;
roasting the green block at 800-1200 DEG C for 2-4 hours, cooling to 200-300 DEG C, and naturally cooling to
room temperature to obtain a roasted block; and placing the roasted block in a vacuum graphitization furnace for
atmosphere protection, treating at 2500-2800 DEG C for 2 hours, cooling to 200-300 DEG C, and naturally cooling to
room temperature to obtain the high-purity graphite material. According to the preparation method, the graphite waste powder is adopted as the aggregate, so that the
raw material cost can be effectively reduced, the additional value of the high-purity graphite waste powder can be improved, dipping and repeated
roasting are not needed, the preparation process is simple, the production period can be effectively shortened, and the production cost can be reduced.
